Jihadi John hate preacher Hani al-Sibai is still spouting extremist ideology in the UK
The 55-year-old reportedly claims over £50,000 a year in benefits for his wife and children
AN Islamist preacher accused of helping radicalise Jihadi John is still in the UK spreading his evil ideology.
Hani al-Sibai, 55, spouts his propaganda to his 100,000 Twitter followers.
In the past few weeks he has praised the leader of al-Qaeda, demanded the destruction of Egypt and Jordan and branded the French “sodomites” for banning the burkini on beaches.
Al-Sibai, an Egyptian refugee who came to London almost 20 years ago, described the 7/7 bombings as a “great victory”.
He has used human rights claims to thwart attempts to deport him for the past 16 years, despite appearing on UN terror sanctions lists.
He reportedly claims £50,000 a year in benefits for his wife and five children and lives in a £1million home.

He is said to have helped radicalise the IS group dubbed the “Beatles” who tortured and murdered western hostages in Syria.
They included Mohammed Emwazi, nicknamed “Jihadi John”, who lived near him. He is also understood to have had close links to a terror group in Tunisia called Ansar al-Sharia.
It is thought to have recruited Seifeddine Rezgui who slaughtered 38 holidaymakers on a beach, including 30 Brits.
Al-Sibai is mentioned several times in a 2013 report by the International Centre for Counter-Terrorism in The Hague and is described as one of its “key influencers”.
